    AbstractThe use of ultrasound-guided regional anesthesia is growing as a modality for analgesia provision within the pediatric emergency department. We present a case in which a paravenous saphenous nerve block was used for anesthesia during incision and drainage of a lower extremity abscess. We further review the technique and literature concerning this straightforward and effective procedure.Copyright © 2022 Wolters Kluwer Health, Inc. All rights reserved.
